My wedding is in 2 weeks and I always intended to walk down the aisle to Israel Kamakawiwo’ole’s version of “Somewhere over the rainbow”. When I youtubed the song it seems an extremely popular choice. So, I guess what I’m asking is, have you been to a wedding featuring this song? I would prefer to choose something a little more original if this song is frequently played at weddings.

I agree that I should keep it if I love it, but I think even I’m starting to get a bit sick of it!! Or maybe I’m just overthinking everything about my wedding (because I am). Suddenly all my choices don’t seem quite so amazing! I will see what other bees have to say. Thanks for commenting.

Play what you want at your wedding. I have always been hellbent on not playing anything that’s remotely popular for aisle walks, but am going to end up walking to “The Book of Love” just because it’s sentimental.

ne11y23: I’ve never heard that song played at any of the weddings I’ve attended, so I def wouldn’t consider it over done. I like his version of this song, but it always makes me sad, so it would feel like a bit of a downer to start the ceremony with it. If you love it, go for it. No one will care

ne11y23: lol its a lovely song, but every time i see a girl walk down the aisle to it i just roll my eyes. There are a million songs to choose. I walked down to lovely acoustic version of “Somebody to Love” by Queen!! it was very me.
